Windows Just Been Tinted
P80RSY:
I don't think the front's are illegal, when i had my last car done the grade of film used was 35+ which i was informed was right on the limit anything darker would have been illegal. I was pulled and tested in County Durham and the tints stayed and they looked darker than your fronts.
Don't shoot me if i'm wrong, just passing on what i was lead to believe.
Oh yea look nice too and at a good price :smiley:

Even a clear bit of film on a standard cars tints makes you illegal unfortunately. Most cars standard tint, from the factory is right on the limit.

Reason is the black dotted section around the screen, when you apply the tint, air gets trapped in the dots and gives you the white rim edge, because the tint isnt sat on the glass directly.
From your 1st photo, it doesnt look too bad. Mine was appauling even after a 2nd attempt to put it right.
If that is a tint on your front glass , remove it as oli says. They do however a Carbon UV light tint. Which doesnt tint the glass, but helps stop UV light getting in, gives the glass an ever so slight mirror reflection on the outside, and helps keeping the car cooler inside ,especially if you have full leather.
taken 30 mins after it was done...
